The Volunteers: The Clan

The Three Jacks - American Celtic: The personal website for the "acoustic flying column" of The Volunteers - "The Three Jacks!"
Diane Ward: "... Ethereal, gauzy, and random, the eleven-track CD features the expected top-shelf production values and brilliant songwriting. It's full of diversity, it's finely crafted, it's pleasantly pleasurable." That's what Greg Baker of Miami's New Times thinks of Dianes' new CD. Check it out here!
Jack Shawde: Need a premo studio musician? Ace sideman? Top-notch arranger, producer? Bob's yer uncle - (or in this case, Jack).
Ade Peever: Love Ade's music. Ade's CD, "Green Man Said," features Henk's unmistakeable vocals as the damned First Mate on "Skeleton Crew" and the whole bunch of the Vols back Ade up as "Rebel Crewe" on the tub-thumping "Brother Judas."
Matthew Sabbatella: Matt has released two CDs of American folk songs from the frontier as "Ballad of America" Volumes I and II, with numerous notorious South Florida musicians lending a hand, including Jack Stamates on fiddle and Henk Milne roaring lustily along whenever allowed. (We list Matt here even though he won't follow our suggestion to adopt the stage-name "Matt Sabbath").
Iko-Iko: Award-winning, legendary blues outfit from Miami, headed by renowned singer/songwriter Graham Wood Drout and featuring the blazing guitars of "Good Rockin' Johnny" Wenzel over the power-drums of (ex-Vol) Dan East and a bass end held down by (the Vols' own) Mitch Mestel. Check it out!
The 18 Wheelers: The 18 Wheelers like to sing songs about trucks. As a matter of fact, they're probably the only band in the state of Florida who play "truck driving music". Blending elements of roots rock, honky tonk country, western swing, rockabilly, and bluegrass, The 18 Wheelers keep it upbeat and dancable. They're not afraid to do the occaisional "cry in your beer" song either. Great rockin' band! [Two of 'em, Chris and Paul, are ex-Vols, too!]
Miami Beach Recording Studios: Looch and the lads. Just the best!
Scurge: The Vols owe their fab CD sound to Looch's talents as an engineer and producer. You can check out Looch's keen ear for a pop-hook in his own poptronic compositions with Scurge, here. (Henk wrote and recited the ethereal Stephen-Hawking-via-John-Donne-ish poem regarding the birth of ideas for Looch's song, "Start" - cueing loosely off DuChamp's impossibe Dadaist machinery in "The Great Glass")
